Body Cleanse

I made an awesome dinner on Tuesday night, which consisted of chorizo, potatoes, beans and eggs. It was so much that I made that I ended up eating it as leftovers on Wednesday night too. Because of how bloated I felt and gross that I didn't really eat anything super healthy, I decided that yesterday was going to be a cleansing. I had an extremely vegetarian day! For breakfast, I had a blueberry bagel with Nutella, banana, yogurt and orange juice. For lunch, I had celery, carrots and golden tomatoes sprinkled with a little salt and pepper. I also had an apple and blueberries with 1 packet of Splenda sprinkled on top. For dinner, I had cucumber, tomato and lettuce with turkey bacon and balsamic viniagrette. It was pretty healthy today, until I started my show. I finished my salad and my water before I started getting ready at 630pm. My stomach started growling a bit before I had to go on stage at 8pm. I felt really awake and hyped up due to the veggies vitamins and minerals that were keeping me energized. Fatty foods make me so tired, as I soon realized and understood yesterday. I already eat quite a lot of vegetables, sometimes more than the protein I'm supposed to eat. My mom used to think that I would be a vegetarian when I was little because I don't really like meat. For the most part, it is true. I'd rather have a meatless meal, but I know the importance of having a balanced diet. I know that the protein will give me vitamins that beans or nuts can't give me. So, I think from this point on, I will switch it up on a daily basis and have completely vegetarian days. That cleansing yesterday made me realize how much I miss being that mini-hippie. I love eating lots of fruits and vegetables, so I have decided to embark (partly) on my best friend Luis' journey to be a vegetarian. May we be both end up healthier people by the end of this.

By the way, I haven't been going to the gym this quarter due to the fact that I value my sleep way more than getting up to work out. So, after this show is over (Sunday), I will be going to the gym in the mornings and getting back into shape. As strange as this may sound, I miss running on the treadmill while listening to Black Eyed Peas. Oh memories...

THIS WILL BE MY NEW CATCH PHRASE! Hahaa. I love it.
